Chocolate mousse guaranteed



Chocolate mousse is a much-loved dessert and it's funny that there are so many different ways to make this classic, with different textures but one only name: the chocolate mousse.

This recipe is really easy, only 2 ingredients and you're done.

Since the recipe has only two ingredients, it all depends on the quality of the chocolate you're using. My choice was Valrhona�s Guanaja, but if you have another favorite, feel free to substitute as long as it has 70% cocoa. If you find the taste of bittersweet chocolate too strong, you may add a bit of sugar.

You can also flavor your mousse with cinnamon or cayenne pepper if you like or add a tablespoon of liquor like Grand Marnier for example!

The mousse sets beautifully after few hours in the fridge and never looses that melt-in-your-mouth consistency. 

The recipe was adapted from a French chef called Cyril lignac! Enjoy and Bon app�tit!!



 
Ingredients (serves 6):
200 g (7 oz) bittersweet chocolate
6 eggs
pinch of salt

In a saucepan, melt the chocolate with 2 tbsp of water on low heat.
Set aside and allow to cool for a couple of minutes.

Separate the eggs into whites and yolks. Beat the whites with a pinch of salt on high speed until soft peaks form.

Add the beaten yolks to the melted chocolate. And mix well.
In 3 additions, fold egg white into chocolate mixture, and gently mix until seamlessly combined.

Pour into ramekins and refrigerate for around 8 hours.

Croque Madame

Image
Originated in France as a fast-food snack, and served in caf�s and bistros, croque Monsieur is the hot ham and cheese grilled sandwich we all love.  A croque monsieur topped with a fried or poached egg, is a croque madame, or in parts of Normandy, a croque-�-cheval. I love this sandwich with french pressed coffee for brunch, and I also love it with a glass of wine for dinner. That�s particularly why I love this sandwich, because it can go either way: breakfast or dinner. Ingredients (serves 4): 8 slices of white bread 4 tsp of Dijon mustard � pound smoked ham, thinly sliced � cup shredded cheese (Gruy�re) 3 tbsp unsalted butter 3 tbsp all purpose flour 2 cups milk Dash of salt and pepper 4 large eggs The sauce: In a saucepan, melt 3 tbsp of butter, add 3 tbsp of flour and whisk continuously for abt 3 mn.
